2 women hit by falling glass table in midtown, city official says

Two women were taken to the hospital after a glass table fell from the 22nd floor of a building in midtown Tuesday morning, a city official said.

The FDNY responded around 10:50 a.m. to the building at 530 Seventh Ave., between 38th and 39th streets. The women were taken to Bellevue Hospital Center with injuries that were not life-threatening, the FDNY said.

The table was on a balcony on the 22nd floor of the 32-story-tall building, and was swept over the guardrails, a city official said. The Department of Buildings has issued a violation to the building owner for failure to secure the balcony, the official said.
